With this D, and the O line (if healthy), the QB shouldn't gamble too much. He can be Tom Brady, a game manager.
Brissett is a very good deep ball thrower. The Colts will still take their chances downfield.

With TY Hilton, hell yes.

You contol the ball, you score (FG's are not the devil), you control the clock.

STRIKE when you see the opportunity, and you run the ball when ahead. Brissett will have a lot of help if he sees it;

If they think JB is the answer. I can see them making a move on another RB to help take the pressure off of him. Not talking about Zeke either.

That is a good point, I do recall him being very good at getting the ball deep despite his less than 60% accuracy overall.

And he has much better targets overall now than in 2017.

One question I have is do they go into week one and two with Phillip walker as the back up. That scares me more than Brissett starting.

I don't think they know if he is the answer but will make a decision after this season, since its a contract year.

If he is not, a whole bunch of cap money to try and get a FA or try to draft one, somehow.

I mentioned this elsewhere but they had the throwing guru (House) in a couple of weeks ago and he spent the week working with JB on his mechanics. Will be interesting to see how/if his accuracy has been improved as a result. Both Luck and Brees spoke so highly of House's impact on them.
